Does Mavericks os have any problems or changes that will screw my computer, my programs, my games and the way i am used to it?
Can someone answer me please before i update it?
for the record, i have had nothing but nightmarish problems since i downloaded maveric.
i originally lost wifi access. my time machine/time capsule would no longer back up, i am now having problems with itunes, my iphone5 will not "finish syncing"
i would avoid maveric like the plague until the bugs are fixed.

I just received a new macbook pro. I am looking for a usb3 external storage 500 GB drive. Some manufacturers of drives aren't for sure their drive will work with the new system. Does anybody have any suggestions for drives that will workw
There seems to be a problem, just now, with the USB 3 ports on the new MBP's supporting eternal USB 3 drives. Some people have no luck at all - can't even recognize the drive - and some are reporting USB 2 speeds (those who drives are recognized). I'd call a dealer such as LaCie or OWC to see if they have USB 3 drives that actually work with MBP's with USB 3 ports. You may have to wait for a software/firmware update.

OK, I need to be able to have a linked TOC, and also have destinations created in FM10 that will not be lost when I 1. Save the book as a PDF; then 2. I need the PDF to be as small as possible, but without losing my destinations. Anyone know how to do that??
I had been saving as a PDF and then reducing the size of the PDF by printing it as a PDF with a degree of image compression. I write manuals with a LOT of screen captures and line art that needs to be clear. So it is a balancing act between image clarity and PDF size. The PDFs on the web need to be smaller - sure you can undertsand.
Anyway, when I print the PDF again, I lose both my destinations and bookmarks.
Anyone know of any way to avoid that?Control the images by creating a custom PDF Job Options and then selecting it in the PDF Job Options drop-down of the PDF setup dialog box (File > Save as PDF...)
Create the custom PDF Job Options file with Distiller. If you do not have Distiller, open the Printing Preferences of the Adobe PDF printer. Start with the Smallest File Size Job Options settings and Edit. -
Does Firefox 5 have any problems with Kaspersky ant-virus
Since I downloaded Firefox 5 I have a problem with a process avp.exe in Kaspersky anti-virus 2011. This process uses 70-80% of my CPU slowing my system almost completely. This only started after I downloaded F5. Is this just a coincidence?
The file avp.exe is part of Kaspersky's application. See:
*http://www.processlibrary.com/directory/files/avp/29180/
*http://forum.kaspersky.com/index.php?showtopic=183727
*Google search results: https://encrypted.google.com/search?sclient=psy&hl=en&lr=&tbs=qdr%3Ay&source=hp&q=%22avp.exe%22&btnG=Search
*Search results on Kaspersky's forum for '''''avp.exe''''': http://forum.kaspersky.com/index.php?act=Search&CODE=show&searchid=2f10092f57c9de4a962382114e3c2235&search_in=posts&result_type=topics&highlite=%2Bavp.exe
The only conflict you may encounter is with any toolbars that Kaspersky may install in browsers, if they have not been updated to show compatibility with Firefox 5. That will not affect the protections offered by Kaspersky as far as scanning incoming files or the files on your hard drive.
You can post in the Kaspersky forum for more information about Firefox 5 compatibility and avp.exe information: http://forum.kaspersky.com/index.php?s=8db6580c55e05780bdc9da42a2cbe63c&act=idx

My wireless keyboard will not turn on despite new batteries. It is about 8 years old. The contacts seem to be good. What could be the problem?

When I try to connect to MobileMe in system preferences, it keeps saying that my password or username is incorrect. The same problem occurs on idisk.mac.com and when I try to connect to the hard disk connected to my AirPort Extreme. I don't have any problem to access my Apple ID account or ICloud. My password and username are corrected (I have one principal e-mail and two alternatives e-mails in my Apple ID). I don't how to solve it. The biggest problem is that I can't connect to the hard disk on the AirPort Extreme USB entrance and share files and backup.
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore to factory settings/new iPod via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

On my Mac Mini, I keep getting this error message: "iCloud encountered an error while trying to connect to the server". I don't have any problems with iCloud on my laptop / PC. It works fine... Does anyone know what the problem could be?
Your Mac must be on Lion (10.7) to run iCloud. Apple had to change the operating system to fully support it. Nevertheless, it is possible to get emails from iCloud without having Lion. Please tell me if this interests you.
Anyways, here is the link to buy Lion (30 dollars, totally worth the upgrade ): http://itunes.apple.com/be/app/os-x-lion/id444303913?mt=12

Does anyone have any problems with Microsoft Messenger
Hi everybody
My Microsoft messenger was fine till about two weeks later. It keeps signing out all the time and its a real nuisance. Does anyone else have this problem, why is it doing it
Anybody no any alternatives, where you can still have all your msn buddies on it.
Thanks guysSince Messenger is not an Apple product, you should probably post your question on Microsoft's own forums for the Mac products:

I purchased an iPhone 5S using my EDGE upgrade on September 5, but would like to exchange it for an iPhone 6 within the 14 day period. Other than having to pay the $35 restocking fee, will I have any problems doing so? Thanks
Good evening udflyers! You should not have any problem returning/exchanging your current within 14 days http://bit.ly/IeiJI of purchase. However, you may have to preorder the device you want as it is not currently available and preorder start on 9/12/14 at 12:01am, PST. Please process your return/exchange thru the same channel as your original purchase.

I want to buy Creative Cloud but can´t do it in my country (Uruguay), have any problems if I change my country??
Your Adobe account details need to match your billing address so I'm afraid you can't select another country to get round this. Please contact a reseller.

Hi, I have recently updated my OS X to Maverick. when I did, my mail programme (Mail) will not open - for me only. There are 4 other users of the iMac, and they don't appear to have any problems.
First, Safe Boot , (holding Shift key down at bootup), use Disk Utility from there to Repair Permissions, test if things work OK in Safe Mode.
Then move these files to the Desktop for now...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.finder.plist
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.systempreferences.plist
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.desktop.plist
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.recentitems.plist
Reboot & test.
PS. Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive. -
No matter what wi-fi I'm connected to or browser I'm using, webpages take forever to load or they never load at all. Other computers do not have any problems. How can i fix this?
I've tried safari, chrome, firefox...I've cleared the cache as well. This has been going on for several months and used to be tolerable as it was not every website. Now it has become every website and is impossible to deal with. My roommates computer and my cell phone connect fine. I'm fully connected to the router yet websites don't load. I'm using 10.7.5. Thank you!!Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled on some models, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.
